[quote author=@tomX link=topic=89406.msg1635364#msg1635364 date=1193828958]well how about this for a statement:
PEOPLE LIKE TO GET PAID FOR THE JOBS THEY DO!! HELLOOOOOO!!!!!![/quote]The thing tire me o. Someone will waste their precious time doing some serious work for nothing. . .in the name of 'building a portfolio? Say what? portfolio ko Porthacourt ni. Even if you're on a shoe string budget, do not provide 'the more you look the less you see' financial compensation. Get in touch with the animator and make a deal, it is not impossible, something reasonable could be worked out but just don't project that irritating 'work for free' idea.

For God sake, stick to the thread topic or keep quite!
What's the difference between that and the content of this thread? Bottom line is: This line of argument is very irritating, either way.

We are here tearing our obante trying to discredit a nation that stands out amongst GIANTS while our 'beloved' Nigerian 'government' is busy 'renovating' two houses with N600 Million while equipping our fire fighters with flip flops and buckets.

In your world. . .

America = Bad/Devil/Antichrist/Shaytan/Ekwensu

Arab = Good/Victim/Saints

Holocaust = Myth/Fallacy

What else is new? huh

jerrymania:
All Christians believe they are meant for heaven. Moslems and Judaists will go to hell. That means Christians are the only holy ones. Is that true?
Yes that is correct, Christians are the only people going to heaven and Osama Bin Laden is a native of Nanka in Aguata Local Government Area of Anambra State, Nigeria.

I'll choose everyday people over smallville anyday, i can't imagine how u guys manage to watch that rubbish, I prefer 'The New Adventures Of Superman'
One man's 'rubbish' is another man's 'Block buster'.

I love Smallville and it is probably the only TV series I follow religiously apart from The Boondocks, Prison Break, Ghost In A Shell: SAC and Trinity Blood. As a superman comics fan, I was offended in the Beginning of Smallville because I thought they flipped the whole damn story,but after a few episodes, I was hooked. Ilove the interesting love triangle between Clark, Lana,Lex, Cloe, Lois and Jimmy. . . one man, three women. . .make up your damn mind! Lol.

Keep 'em coming fellas.

@ Geemus,you have to grab something like photoshop and start practicing. Scout the net for free tutorials and join Photoshop discussion forums. In addition to photoshop, there abound a multitude of 3D applications that will be valuable to your computer graphics 'arsenal'.

Foreign Affairs › Re: Nobel-winning Biologist Apologizes For Remarks About Blacks by grafikdon: 12:38am On Oct 25, 2007
NO We are not genetically wired to be morons but we have refused to discredit that repugnant concept. There's not a single stable chocolate nation. Na to stoop down sh*t for lagoon na im we sabi. Imagine somebody telling us they need N688 M to buy massage wetincall? Imagine a nation where the governors pocket 99.9% of the funds meant for the development of their states, century in century out, the same old nonsense! What a bunch of
imbeciles! We all want to go to heaven but NOBODY WANTS TO DIE! Na so them dey take go heaven?

Let me give you a hint: When we have to prove them wrong, just like the Japanese, Indians and Chinese! THAT IS THE ONLY SOLUTION. We have what it takes to get to an enviable position in every field of endeavour but until we get there, we will continue to see people calling us a bunch of nappy headed retards. . . crying foul and asking Watson to impregnate a woman from Ogbomosho so as to appease the ancestors of Nigeria is not going to cut it. When we put our house in order and get rid of undesirable elements in our midst (surprisingly, they are an insignificant minority) NOBODY will call us a nation of idiots because they will look KING OF IMBECILES.

until we get there, brothers and sisters, brace yourself for more Doctor Watsons. . . they are everywhere waiting to call you ''natural slowpoke'' anytime you make the predictable dumb move. The worst is yet to come. We continue to supply them armour to bombard the heck out of us.

Let me drop one more bomb that will rock the house:

Just this morning I was having a chat with my friend's mother and she told me (With unshakable conviction)

" See how everything is running smoothly here (New York). This shows that God created oyibo first before he used the remnants to create the black man. That is why he gave them everything and that is why we retrogress everywhere we are"



OUCH!!!!



The truth is she is DEAD WRONG but the fact is, WE SUCK! I was going to get into that argument but knowing she'd hit me with "Show me just ONE stable predominantly black nation" and knowing I have no answer to that question, I started to crack a joke about people taking a dump in the subway (yes, I did see a heap of poop in a NYC subway. . . in a predominantly black neighbourhood). . . just to change the subject.



Bottom line:

WE HAVE TO GET OUR ACTS TOGETHER. THAT IS THE ONLY WAY WE CAN SHUT UP THE NAY SAYERS FOR ETERNITY.

What really makes you think MEND will give up a lucrative business of armed robbery, kidnapping and oil bunkering? Are you guys kidding? If you honestly believe they will 'give up arms' after making them drink oil for breakfast, lunch and dinner, you must have your head examined. MEND is a clueless and disjointed criminal/terrorist organization.

Art, Graphics & Video › Re: Do You Draw Comics? Manga? by grafikdon: 7:38pm On Oct 20, 2007
adjain,

Most of the commercial comics are drawn on paper and scanned in image manipulation programs for digital touch up/colors. You've got the skills (obviously) but don't waste your energy on any crappy program, they will only stunt your artistic growth and frustrate you. I say draw your stuff the way you want it ON PAPER, and scan into Photoshop (Since you've picked that up). Your speed issue will fade away with time and constant practice.

Nice looking black girl. Looking forward to see the complete video.

Don't you think you shouldn't be using vista, it's terrible with 3d. I installed maya on mine, it was extremely slow compare to xp even with 2gb of ram.
what's windows problem self!
Video's been aborted for now.

Vista is an abomination. PLAIN and SIMPLE. And this opinion will remain unchanged until I can do something serious with my 'machine'. For now I am satisfied with my XP 'machines'. I use the Vista system for minor work and internet access, everything else goes to XP systems,

NINETOFIVE:
Too much hatred is actually not good for, could make you neurotic, calm down please.
No need for that appeal, his hatred is insignificant and can not withstand the real 'Wind of Change'. Bottom line is, when the vehicles are produced and tested, as long as they meet the required safety standards, MILLIONS of Nigerians will JUMP on it. The burden of Maintenance lies on the car owner since there will be availability of parts and maintenance programs established by the company. Make no mistake about that. There is hope for Nigeria despite all the religious fanaticism and ethnic antagonism. What God has ordained. . . perhaps this is one of them. Let's watch and see how this unfolds and hopefully, it won't be swept away by the usual sickening tribal politics. Fortunately , Yar'adua has shown some positive signs when he reopened some local manufacturing companies closed down by the malignant and malevolent abomination known as Olisiego Obusonjo. smiley
